Used to use balls but can't find it anymore. Now I use Louisiana fish fry with lemon and mix yellow corn meal with it. About 2/3 fish fry 1/3 corn meal then throw in some big easy seasoning.

I mix my own when I do fry, which is not very often.

About 2/3 corn meal and 1/3 flower.

Add salt, black pepper, garlic power and a little Cayenne.

I mix my own - 2 cups yellow cornmeal and 1 cup all purpose flour. Add Tony's or whatever spice you like to that mixture and mix well (I add a generous amount). Pat fish dry and put worcestershire sauce and a little hot sauce on fish (if you like a kick). Dredge in cornmeal/flour mixture and fry up. Comes out crispy and tastes awesome!

When frying seafood I use a spicy mustard egg wash with highly seasoned seafood but I do not season my crust going with either corn flour or a grittier corn meal pending on what I am frying I prefer grittier for oysters half and half for frog and shrimp and corn flour for fish. I even fry chicken in a corn flour, meal mix. I season meat and egg wash but not breading. I like the contrast that way and the meat is the star anyways.

LAst time i fried fish i used some Uncle Petes out of Bayou bLue, it was the best fish fry I've used.

Before that I would just but the container of corn flour from the deli at Rouses and use that. Run fish through egg wash with some hot sauce in it, batter, fry. As soon as it come out of the grease I sprinkle creole seasoning on it.

I got this stuff and it tastes great:

its not as yellow as the "fish fry" but its the same stuff at a HUGE savings.

course you have like 5 gallons of the stuff so you need sealed containers to put it in (I use old ice cream buckets) and its like a years supply at a time but with fish fry at like $3 for a 1 pound box or just under that, you can see this saves a lot of money providing you have a place and containers to store it in.

and I think it tastes a lot better then the plain unseasoned zatarans fish fry I used to buy

just wanted to share
